Does this merely postpone the inevitable if it turns out to be true? Buy time for more Shocker folks to get on the football bandwagon? Keep things pretty much the way they are?

Latest development is that it's close to a done deal that the Big Twelve minus two will stay intact.
Remaining schools in Big 12 close to saving league
According to sources familiar with the deal, Texas stands to earn between $20 million and $25 million in television revenue, including money from its own network. The UT network figures to generate between $3 million and $5 million, according to sources.
According to sources, the deal will mean more money for Texas, Texas A&M and Oklahoma, who all stand receive $20 million from the new deal. The other seven schools in the Big 12 would make between $14 million and $17 million, but would nearly double what they currently receive in TV revenue (roughly $7 million to $9 million).Comment

The Pac-10 and Big 10 have been BCS conferences w/o a Championship game for years.Comment

As long as the new conference has Texas and OU, it will be a BCS conference.
Does this make it appear that Texas enjoys bossing around the Big 12 a bit more than we might have originally thought.
They appear, if this is true, to prefer to be a very large fish in a medium pond, as opposed to a large fish in a very large pond.Comment

If there is not 12, they cannot have a championship GAME. They can still be BCS.Comment

If there's one thing that has come out of this so far...that is that nothing is a done deal until there is a formal announcement.Originally posted by TxShoxComment

Agreed. If the Pac-10 decides to let Texas have their own media network, you could see things swing back in the other direction.Originally posted by martymoose"Cotton scared me - I left him alone." - B4MSU (Bear Nation poster) in reference to heckling playersComment
